1971 VW Karmann Ghia Convertible LHD
Rare opportunity to own this classic car for the enthusiast
New baby forces very reluctant sale :(
MOT to May 2014
Taxed to July 2013 (Exempt)
Serviced Annually
Mileage 59. 00
Imported from New York June 1994 - Complete with New York style number plates
Originally automatic as has "Automatic Stickshift" script written badge on engine hood but now manual
A considerable amount spent on the car over time
Last two years the car has spent most of it's time in the garage under a cover. It's a shame to be selling the car on but it really needs to go to someone who will get the use and fun from this head-turning classic car.
Although not show condition. it still looks very good and is a totally reliable. honest and beautiful classic car that needs to be used and enjoyed
Just had full service and pre-sale checkover. so nothing needs doing and is ready to go
The previoius owner renewed the headliner. carpets and trim panels and fitted a new clutch and replacement 1. 6 engine (10. 00 miles ago) and stainless steel tailpipes
Also been done:-
Re-upholstered driver's seat
Brake overhaul
General mechanical repairs/servicing every year
Replacement front bumper and over-riders front and back (second-hand original parts)
Replacement repro dash top
New battery (2011)
New starter motor (2012)
Bodywork:-
Wheels stripped and repainted in red (original VW colour)
Replacement engine hood from USA
New rear apron
Wing Sections
Inspection cover and a lot. but not all. of the rubber seals on car replaced
Rear arches and doors repaired
All bodywork front to back. checked. repaired as necessary and treated for rust
Full respray in original red Karmann Ghia colour
All bills to prove this plus all the bills from previous owner
Plus MOT certificates going back to 1998 which confirm the mileage
As you would expect in a 42 year old car. there has been some welding done underneath and it has been under-sealed. The front valance had rusted underneath. this was cut away. treated and repainted in black (underneath only)
The only other "quirky" thing is that although the petrol gauge records the level of fuel correctly up to half full. it does not record more than half full. but at 42 years old. we have allowed this quirk!!
Also comes with Blaupunkt radio (unfitted). The car has a working radio and original aerial. we just never got round to having the Blaupunkt radio fitted
More pictures of engine bay etc to follow
We can deliver the car to the Southampton/Portsmouth area upon leaving a deposit of £500 via debit card
Full payment of car can be made via direct bank transfer. debit card or good old fashioned cash!
Any further question. please ask
Thanks for looking. happy bidding!!
